We are all organisms who have evolved to the point of consciousness, our role is as carriers of DNA. The reason we exist is to procreate and continue this self-copying molecule. As an accident of this, human life came about. We are all floating on a tiny pebble in the vast void of nothingness, time stretches backwards and forwards unto infinity beyond our comprehension. You, reading this right now, are but a brief flicker of consciousness before the light is snuffed out and you pass once more into nothing. Human society has been created as a result of billions of interactions between conscious beings and their environments over millennia, and that is where we stand today. Let's try to build up our view of the world from this baseline that all can agree on. Thank you.

Personally I think if you aren't spending your life wringing every ounce of enjoyment out of every minute, you're doing it wrong. Garcon, bring me my fine literature/music/theater along with the feast, the drug cocktail and the attractive members of the opposite (or same) (OR NONE) gender

having unironically thought about this for a while, interdependent co-arising from buddhism is a cool and good perspective on phenomenon and ontology which gives no fucks about that sucka fool aristotle and bitch rear end newtonian causality.

heres some loving perspective Yadabaoth united with the thoughtlessness (aponoia) within him. He begot ruling authorities (exousia) Modeling them on the incorruptible realms above. The first is Athoth The second is Harmas [called the eye of flame] The third is Kalilaumbri The fourth is Yabel The fifth is Adonaiu [called Sabaoth] The sixth is Cain [called the sun] The seventh is Abel The eighth is Abrisene The ninth is Yobel The tenth is Armupiel The eleventh is Melcheir-adonein The twelfth is Belias Who rules over the very depth of Hades. He made the first seven rulers to reign in the seven spheres of heaven. He made the next five rulers to reign in the five depths of the abyss. He shared a portion of his fire with them, But shared none of the power of Light he had received from his mother.

oh poo poo, I guess performing established rituals handed down through generations by a clergy class in order to attain liberation from samsara, the endless cycle of rebirth, suffering and dying again, just like a deified historical figure from 2500 years ago is more of a "lifestyle" then a "belief system". you got me there
